Abstract
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Inquiry (2015) and the National Inquiry into the MMIWG (2019) call on settler-Canadian educators, researchers, students, and criminal justice system members to address the genocides against Indigenous peoples. This thesis explores how criminology can work with and for Indigenous peoples in research, what a decolonizing lens in criminology might look like, and how the discipline can walk in a good way. Between 2018-2024, I participated in 20 workshops, conferences and lectures and 14 conversational dialogues to explore these subjects. I then employed Absolon's Flower Petal Framework to frame what I learned. This experience showed me settlers need to: learn where we have come from to embrace the teachings to walk in a good way; understand where we are to see the siloed stories and experience transformative learning for reconciliation; and act in alignment with Indigenous resurgence.
